The City of Wellman had a water main break on Monday. The main was repaired Tuesday night, and water services were restored around 7:30 pm. There is still a boil order in effect, most likely until Friday. Washington County Public Health is recommending residents of Wellman boil their water for at least two minutes before using it for drinking, cooking, making ice, brushing teeth, and giving to pets.

A boil order continues for the city of Riverside. City Administrator Tina Thomas says they discovered a leak in the water system early this morning, contacted the Department of Natural Resources and issued the order a short time later. Thomas says all water should be boiled prior to human use. She says that doesn’t only apply to drinking but also bathing. Thomas says the order will remain in effect until they get the all clear from the DNR.
